	Funding: Supported in part by DOE STTR grant DE-FG02-08ER86350 Operating a high gradient radio frequency cavity embedded in a strong magnetic field is an essential requirement for muon beam cooling. However, a magnetic field influences the maximum RF gradient due to focusing of dark current in the RF cavity. This problem is suppressed by filling the RF cavity with dense hydrogen gas. As the next step, we plan to explore the beam loading effect in the high pressure cavity by using a 400 MeV kinetic energy proton beam in the MuCool Test Area at Fermilab. We discuss the experimental setup and instrumentation.

	Funding: Supported in part by USDOE STTR Grant DE-FG02-06ER86281 The G4beamline program is a useful and steadily improving tool to quickly and easily model beam lines and experimental equipment without user programming. It has both graphical and command-line user interfaces. Unlike most accelerator physics codes, it easily handles a wide range of materials and fields, being particularly well suited for the study of muon and neutrino facilities. As it is based on the Geant4 toolkit, G4beamline includes most of what is known about the interactions of particles with matter. We are continuing the development of G4beamline to facilitate its use by a larger set of beam line and accelerator developers. A major new feature is the calculation of space-charge effects. G4beamline is open source and freely available.
